For a while now, Morrisville residents have eagerly awaited the "six point plan" put forward by the Emperor, but safely hidden from the public's scrutiny and debate.
One parent has now gone to the state to force the Emperor to make the plan public. Kate Fratti has a blog entry about it.
My reading of the PA state right to know law exceptions says that this is not likely to prevail.
Here's hoping I'm wrong.
What's the plan, Mr. Hellman?
By: Kate Fratti
In Morrisville, a parent applied to receive a copy of "a six point plan," authored by School Board President Bill Hellmann and has been denied. Kevin Leather has appealled under the right to know laws. Here's hoping he's successful. Folks have a right to know what their elected leaders are planning. Or in this case, should the word be plotting? Why else would leaders be so secretive?

I never paid much attention to this Jethro Tull song, other than the "hey man, what's the plan" lyric. So I was surprised to find out it's called "Teacher"...
Well the dawn was coming,
heard him ringing on my bell.
He said, ``My name's the teacher,
that is what I call myself.
And I have a lesson
that I must impart to you.
It's an old expression
but I must insist it's true.
Jump up, look around,
find yourself some fun,
no sense in sitting there hating everyone.
No man's an island and his castle isn't home,
the nest is full of nothing when the bird has flown.''
So I took a journey,
threw my world into the sea.
With me went the teacher
who found fun instead of me.
Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand, lying there in bed.
I try to socialize but I can't seem to find
what I was looking for, got something on my mind.
Then the teacher told me
it had been a lot of fun.
Thanked me for his ticket
and all that I had done.

Bill H.: Somebody refresh my memory again - how many points did I say my plan has?
The LIE FACTORY is up and running.
Despicable and slimy tactics from THE REAL "OLD SELF-SERVING GUARD".
From the makers of ....
I’m right in the middle of the stop the school organization. They NEVER talk about closing down the schools.
[Sharon Hughes, Oct. 24, 2007 board meeting]
AND
Superintendent Yonson and her administration NEVER notified the board of an important budget deadline (that they indeed were informed of AT LEAST TWICE, including at a taped public board meeting).
[Marlys Mihok, January 2008]
AND
I NEVER called the students DUMB or STUPID.
[Ron Stout, April 22, 2009 board meeting]
comes a lie-packed flyer that says school board candidates
Damon Miller
Jermaine Jenkins
Jack Beck
Dave Stoneburner
still want to build a new K-12 school.
This IS NOT AND CANNOT BE TRUE.
1. There is NO MONEY available to do it.
2. By PA law, it would now have to go out for voter REFERENDUM.
3. I just heard Damon Miller publicly state at the April 22 board meeting that any decision to on new building would go to REFERENDUM, and that he would accept the will of the people.
Who's lying?
I'd put my money on THE KNOWN LIARS.
Some recommended reading for the flyer makers......
